Motorola had been contacting members of their Feedback Network looking to test a new “project” for the XOOM tablet. Over the weekend that “project” began reaching users and it is none other than Android 4.0.3. The rollout of a test build is great news, and provided things go smoothly the general public could be seeing Ice Cream Sandwich on the world’s first Honeycomb tablet soon enough. For those too impatient to wait, a copy of the official update has been made available by a member over at XDA. The ROM is available to those running a stock build on the XOOM without root. Seeing can still be considered a test build, there may be some benefit to holding off until the final release is pushed.

If no outstanding issues are found…it will be pushed to all users. I’m running it and haven’t had anything negative to say about that build. If you have a USB OTG cable you can update the Xoom with a usb key.
It’s well worth it!
Where can the ROM be found?

Much appreciated, thanks.
Is it just for the wifi version only?
“Seeing can still be considered a test build, there may be some benefit to holding off until the final release is pushed.” What does this mean?
I wonder if this means the Bionic version of ICS is coming soon..
